Super Writer

Sunday, April 29, 2007

I had the good fortune of seeing Michele Glance Rooney speak at a writer's convention and I feel newly determined and dedicated to finishing my book project. She had many inspiring success stories to share. I was reassured to learn that many of her clients have experienced some of the same ups and downs that I've been running into lately. I loved her ideas on brainstorming and developing a regular writing routine. I think these two ideas will be very powerful tools to help me get through this final hump and get the climax of my novel completed. I am half-way through chapter 8 and I've figured out how the hero is finally going to excape from the wrath of Mr. Bunstable.
